100 Layer Cake

"We we first got engaged, I did what every typical bride probably does: go and research the most gorgeous wedding venues in our state, fall in love, and then get 100% discouraged when finding out how much it would cost to get married there. We initially planned on inviting way more people than we ended up with (like WAY more). The thing that first convinced us that this was not our route was the cost of how much this would be. We knew we wanted to get married, and when it came down to it, we decided we would rather have an intimate ceremony, the reception back at our own house, and then spend the money on our honeymoon celebrating each other and setting our marriage up for a great start. Looking back, we wish we would have came to the realization sooner that neither of us actually wanted a big wedding, and that something tucked in the woods with those closest to us was what would be the most special.
